The crack in the wall of his farm reaches four and a half centimeters. “You can even see it from the other side,” he commented. The rupture, according to the resident, continues to increase. "It was three centimeters on the first day. Now, it is 4.5 centimeters. It was after the maintenance they did on the sewage network. There ended up being a water leak in the street, they made a hole and this happened. I spoke to the engineer at Águas do Mirante. But, so far, I don't have any solution yet", he commented.

Regarding the wall, the complaint was received on Tuesday, July 14, and the wall mentioned is 100 meters from the place where services were carried out on the water network. Semae will assess the situation and, if necessary, the corrective measures to be taken", he stated.
